Valentine’s Day Celebration – Create a meal your special someone will love

Valentine’s Day celebration means flowers and chocolate, chocolate and flowers! Those are the traditional signs that Valentine’s Day is here. February 14th is Valentine’s Day Celebration the world over in many different ways, but the long-stem red roses, frilly greeting cards, and heart-shaped candy boxes are unmistakable. So is that mischievous little cupid—shooting arrows of affection in the hearts of couples both young and old.

The commercialization of this amorous holiday started when American soldiers brought it back to states after World War II. It had long been a European tradition, dating way back to the middle ages.

What’s important now days, despite all the decorative and advertorial reminders, is that we take the time to show our loved ones just how much we care. Time goes by so quickly and those moments are often lost in the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. So, go ahead. Get the typical flowers, chocolates, greeting cards, and other gifts. But try something new this year. Maybe cook something at home instead of going out. It’s that little extra effort will truly make them feel special.

Here are some simple recipes for a Valentine’s Day Celebration you both will love:
